ELMHURST — The drowning death Sunday of a 10-year-old Schiller Park boy is being considered accidential, but an inquest will be held, the Du Page County coroner`s office said Monday.

Juan Favela, 10 of 9209 Sally Lane, Schiller Park, was swimming in an indoor pool at the Elmhurst Holiday Inn, 624 N. York Rd., on Sunday afternoon. Police reports said an unidentified person saw him at the bottom of the pool in about seven or eight feet of water.

Paramedics` attempts to revive him failed, and he was taken to Elmhurst Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
